Santa Santita

Malen is the only daughter of Chayong, a prayer woman in Quiapo who complements her trade with selling rosaries and scapulars. Stubborn and willful, Malen listens to nobody and does what she wants, even if it is against her mother's wishes. No wonder she leaves her mother to go away with Mike, a charming and wily tourist driver. But Malen comes back, and when she does, she has no choice but to take over her mother's job as a prayer woman. She has to survive! So despite the negative comments of other prayer women, Malen stays at the church and accepts prayer requests from desperate souls in exchange for donations. Surprisingly, her prayers get answered even if she does not mean them...
